Galway Bay Hotel Conference & Leisure Centre, Galway

The award-winning, 4-star Galway Bay Hotel overlooks Galway Bay and the Clare Hills, offering a beautiful setting, superb food and many activities.

Located on Galway's Blue Flag beach, the Galway Bay Hotel is 5 minutes from Galway's vibrant centre, yet only a short drive from some of Connemara's most beautiful views.

The Galway Bay Hotel was awarded "Best 4-Star Hotel in Ireland" at the Irish Hospitality Awards in 2005.

Galway Bay Hotel has an expanding list of achievements such as "Best Dinner in Ireland 2007" which truly underwrites the significant and continuous feedback received in the hotel and confirms the highest standards of food and service that the hotel has built up over the years. The Lobster Pot Restaurant enjoys magnificent views of Galway Bay from 3 perspectives, which enhances the restaurant's light and tranquil character. The style of cuisine is modern with a strong emphasis on fresh Irish produce and a particular focus on fresh fish and lobster from the lobster tank, complemented by a fine wine cellar. Vegetarian options are available on all menus. All cuisine in the hotel is overseen by Robert Bell, the Executive Chef, who has received many awards over the years for his culinary achievements, most recently including Catering Manager of the Year at the Irish Hospitality Awards in November 2006. An Scadan Caoc (Herring Choker) is a lively Traditional Irish Pub in every sense of the word, where a warm welcome awaits you. The lounge just off the Scadan Caoc offers a more subdued domain in which to enjoy an evening drink whilst overlooking Galway Bay. Every weekend, the bar features the best in local traditional Irish music. Here, the warm friendly atmosphere is complemented by the perfect pint.
